I think I say it almost every time I comment, but I will say it again. You are a genuine joy to watch! Even my girls ages, 21, 20, 17, 16, 15, and 12.5 enjoy listening to you! (Yes, there are six of them. I have a boy too. He is the oldest.) I joined WW on Feb 8 of this year and am really enjoying it. It's been a bit of a learning curve. I am on Purple 16 as well. The first week or so, I wasn't even getting my 16 points, lol! Now I do much better. The weight IS coming off. Slower than I had hoped, but that is healthier anyway. The pandemic has us out walking daily, so that is helpful too. That is so awesome that you lost 5lb!! in one week! I am going to have to see if I can find that butter spray. I LOVE popcorn, but with salt and butter and if I can get that with the spray, I say woo hoo! Maybe I can have more self-control and stay away from the salt and vinegar chips. It is so hard when you have a family at home that can eat virtually anything! Love that you were honest about your boo boos. :o) Cheering you on from Ontario, Canada!
Id like to tell you my story but dont want to bare all to the whole world but let me tell you I just found your channel and Im so glad i did. You are a little younger than my mom and you are inspiring me to start my own journey I want to lose more than 50 pounds and it seems impossible with my current responsibilities so you are making it seem doable Thank you again
Please continue your inspirational talks, please. There is such a genuineness about you! You appear to be honest, yet funny. There aren't many people like you, so please continue. I listen to you and laugh. Ty, Linda
I am enjoying your videos 😊 for anyone interested, you can put plain popcorn kernels in a paper lunch bag, fold the end twice, sealing it, and put it in the microwave... That's how I do mine 😉
I am so happy for you. I am 69 and decided enough was enough. I am tired of being fat. I stopped fast food. I lost 3 lbs. My highest was 200. I began walking I have a fit bit. 5000 steps. Quarantine scared me so in April I went to 8000 steps. I lost 5 more lbs. For diet I am tracking and eating 1200 -1300 per day. As of June 1st I am at 181. I am now up to 10,000 steps I walk everyday. I have now stop losing. I intermittent fast. The struggle is so real...I will not give up.
You go girl! That is awesome! I have heard good things about intermittent fasting. I may give it a try to shake things up a bit! I'm glad you aren't giving up!
So glad I found you! You are so happy and enthusiastic! I am too shy to do a video yet, but I just joined WW tonight and have 100lbs to lose. Keep making the videos I love watching you. You are beautiful inside and out! 🙂
Congratulations on getting started. You may want to join my Mindful Health Private Facebook Group. It's free and open to any woman over 40 who wants to lose weight. It's a very supportive group. Here's the link: bit.ly/3eAvkmV
I am 57 and just started the WW Purple Online Plan. I bought a new scale that tells you the percentage of body fat and also your metabolic age and it told me my metabolic age was 62 years old! I want to lose 50 pounds but my short term goal is 20 pounds. Your videos are very helpful and I try to watch 1 or 2 a day as motivation. When you showed the pizza your family was having I thought to myself I would have to take a drive when they eat that and have them text me when it's gone and the box is in the trash. I love pizza! Also, like you I love coffee with lots of cream. Bad habits I am working on.
You are amazing for setting goals and sticking to them. I am over 50 and have struggled with weight for about 30 years. Just joined ww green plan and love feeling better because energy is better lost 11 pounds last month and looking forward to continuing success.
About the popcorn, this is what I do. 1/4 cup popcorn kernels in a brown paper lunch bag and microwave for about 2 minutes and 15 seconds and salt to taste with the butter spray.
hi...I lost 40 lbs on WW..then stood still up & down a little for a long time..basically maintenance. .not by choice..a couple of months ago I decided I needed a change...I am on the blue plan...So I combined Intermittent fasting which was the BEST thing I ever did! it took away all my cravings and I get full very quickly! I am down 15 lbs in the past 8 weeks! total 55 lbs! I have another 40 to go and have no fear that I won't get there. I also now only get on the scale every other week and the best thing this did for me is that I never think of food! I am so excited ....Good luck on your journey..P.S I am 70!
Hi I just found your videos totally by accident...I enjoyed couple of them,.I will keep watching them...they are relaxing and entertaining...and I am learning a lot from you.Thank you for sharing.
I am new to RUclips, found your channel so I have subscribed. I am on WW and was seriously thinking of changing from blue to purple so this was spot on.
Love your channel, just found you today!! I signed up for WW after viewing another one of your vids. I too am a "purple." One of my daughters gave a me a helpful hint, if you can wash "it" under the faucet, you're good!
As I have commented before I am at a standstill with my weight loss. I follow WW recipes most of the time even though I am on a diabetic/carb restricted program, I adjust for the carbs accordingly. One hurtle is the eggs, which my system does not tolerate anymore. Breakfast is some leftover meat with veggies sautéed with cooking spray. The other is artificial sweetener, my palate does not tolerate that either. Strike 2. I also use fat free 1/2 & 1/2 in my coffee which is an absolute must, thank you for being there with me. This was a great chat and am getting back on track counting points again. My nighttime snack is usually an apple cut in wedges, microwaved with cinnamon. Sounds corny but it is hot apple pie to me🤗 You are such an inspiration and bless you for being there.😍
Hey Bobbie, I’m 62, single, and have fought my weight all my life. I have always been or at least felt fat. My knees had gotten so bad, and that motivated me to start something, in May 2019 I started Noom. You are right, I have to keep track, and that is, I think, what’s different. Accountability. I haven’t done as well as you have, but I’ve lost 40+ pounds. I’m saying it that way because my weight goes up a couple of days, and then it will go down again. It vacillates TONS! That’s hard. So I have 40 lbs that I for sure hold on to, but the other about five pounds is up and down daily. If I would walk everyday, you are right, I’d lose more. I live in a city, and I don’t like to walk alone, much, but I NEED to do that! Anyway, thanks for the encouragement! Love you tons! God Bless!
40 pounds is amazing! Congratulations, you worked hard for that. Keep going and don’t worry about the five pounds up or down. Maybe don’t weigh yourself so much. That discourages me and sometimes I’ll cheat because of it. Cheering for you! 💕
I love watching your videos. You are inspiring me! I was on Weight Watchers 40 years ago. That is when we went to meetings, counted our points from a little book & I got down to my desired weight. I gained 50 lbs during the next 33 years, so 8 years ago I went back to doing weight watchers on my own - not going to meetings, just keeping track of points from the book. (Wake up call, I got breast cancer & my doctor encouraged me to lose weight) I lost the 50 lbs & have kept it off until last year I put 15 lbs back on so I went on it again a few weeks ago & just about have it off but want to lose about 5-10 lbs more. I seem to be stuck at 145 lbs & having a hard time getting it off. So I joined WW online & have been watching your videos. I'm having problems with using the WW online. I've asked questions, without getting any response. I know my computer skills aren't great so it may be me not knowing where to look. I'm on the blue plan & I want to know how to figure points, & how do you use the scanner to find points, etc? Can you give me suggestions? Also, on your receipe of turkey chili do you not use any tomato sauce? Thank you
Thank you Mary! Congratulations on your weight loss. I do hope you are cancer free now? I don't think I am the one to ask for tech. Maybe you should call them? Yes, I do use tomato sauce.
I know this videos a few months old but if you’re not doing it yet I pre portion my bags when I get home from the store, meaning I weigh out my big bags such as your veggie straws, into single serving bags, then write on the bags how many points. I’ve just started ww and this helps me a lot
What a joy to watch you. This is just what I needed to get me back on track. I can’t wait to purchase the microwave popcorn bowl amd to go watch more of your videos. You have a great smile and enthusiasm!
No matter, YOU DID A GREAT JOB! You are such an inspiration in so many ways to so many people. I’m almost to the 50 mark and have learned so much from your videos ❤️
5 pounds ! Congratulations! I think that is awesome ! I also have the same problem at night with the munchies AND I also just bought one of those popcorn poppers too ! I really like it ! I am on WW blue plan and the most I have lost in a week is 2 pounds so I think you are doing amazing ! Lately I have been going up and down myself with weight loss and gain. We stayed with in laws for a few days and they made three different desserts during that visit - PLUS we made s'mores outside ! Oh man I couldn't resist so of course I gained about 2 pounds back ! I did not beat myself up about it, just learned a lesson from it. Keep up the great work ! You are so inspiring to me and I love your channel ! Can't wait to try your meatball recipe !
you all probably dont care at all but does someone know a method to get back into an instagram account?? I stupidly forgot the account password. I appreciate any help you can give me
@Aden Dominic I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm trying it out now. Seems to take a while so I will reply here later with my results.
For someone who has never been a coffee drinker but loved sweet tea both hot and cold I found the only way I could cut the sugar was one teaspoon full at a time. Once I got use to one missing I cut another, now I am down to two teaspoons for a full post which is 6 cups instead of two per cup. Maybe that would work with your half and half. Just cut on teaspoon or even a half and go from their but do it slowly over time. Good luck!
Love your channel! I think you did an amazing job while going through the beginning of the pandemic. I did weight watchers years ago and loved it. I would make the same mistakes as you made and found that couple days when I would have higher points, I would trick my body/metabolism and the weight would come off. Thanks for being so real ❤️
You did excellent! I joined WW in 2017, and lost 53# over the next 15 months, and got to my goal by Sept 2018. Then I met my new husband on eHarmony, and we started dating--going to countless restaurants. We married in 2019. By Spring 2020, I had gained 20+ pounds! Now I'm on my way down again. I am drinking 60 ounces of water a day. Isolation has helped me lose weight by not going to restaurants for greasy, salty foods. I am going to keep close track of my points for a week and expect to lose 2#. When I was lighter on my feet, I was much lighter-hearted and the world was a sunny place.
I’m 33, but I am so enjoying your videos! I am on the WW blue plan and can relate so much to you. I just purchased a microwave popcorn maker and some zero point seasonings by Kernel Season’s. They have everything from salty to sweet so I’m hoping they cure whatever I crave to munch on after dinner, and just wanted to mention them to you in case you’d like to try a new no guilt flavor. Just look for the seasonings and not the drizzles :) Keep it up!
Your enthusiasm is contagious! Such an inspiring video. I feel.so stuck at my weight and helpless but you've shown me it can be done if I'm willing to plan and sacrifice. Thank you!
Great job, I have got to get back on track also, this coronavirus has put me in a tail spin. You have inspired me to get back on track. Keep us updated.
Congrats Bobbie.. what an awesome loss! I’m 57 and reached lifetime a few weeks ago.. Now I’m worried about maintenance and how to keep the weight off! The journey never ends.
I need to get back to WW . I was good for so many years and these last three have been bad. So much stress , I was stress eating and I need to stop. Keep up with the motivation. Thanks
pear in 100% juice..drained is 0sp. ..you do not scan it....the one unsweetened has artificial sweetner...I have worked for WW and know that for sure...so any fruit in 100% Juice drained should not be scanned. .0sp. ..you did not make mistake unless you drink the juice
Yeah!!! Congratulations. Great willpower and determination. I’m over here eating like every meal is my last one. Stepped ion the scale ...😲. Not good! But today after watching this video I’m going to get a handle on my eating.
I love coffee too! I bought a Nespresso for my birthday,which is life changing! I use real half n half, and stevia in my coffee. The pods are 1.00 to 1.20 per pod, it makes the most amazing coffee, because it makes a crema , a creamy texture, so u don’t need as much creamer to give u the creaminess.i have used 1 T. For my coffee along with the stevia, I bought the The Nespresso the pkg., which came with a frothier, I have tried low-fat milk, almond milk, and half -n-half, all turn out creamy and luscious.
Congratulations on your 5 pound loss! I’m on WW also, but Blue plan. We must be soul sisters! I love, love coffee and popcorn! I’m going to try the Amazon popcorn popper! I laughed during your video regarding the brownies because just last night my daughter made brownies. It was so hard to not have a small piece.
That awesome Bobbie. I’m on blue and getting discouraged...have been thinking of switching to purple. Hmmm..I think it’s a go after watching this..good going❤️
I went to green and really enjoying it They all work but it's how it works for each individual. Try the purple for at least 2weeks to give it a good chance.
Thank you for sharing...it really does help me....evening snacks are the hardest for me...I’ll try the microwave popcorn...and....I totally share your love for coffee....totally....and I’ve decided i will continue to have my three cups a day....or I might just hurt somebody...LOL. Keep up the good work...you are an inspiration.
I am 75 and lost 6.4 lbs in a month. I am on the blue plan. I taught nutrition certificated to teach. I wanted to try WW. I am 5’4” and now 140.6 and want to get down to 120. I am eating 23 points a day but I leave a point or 2 off. I don’t eat more than 1 free food a day.
Hi Bobbie. Tomorrow is the first virtual class for me. It's been an awful week because I have been running up and down the stairs pandering to my husband's every whim. He had a hip replacement done last Monday (9th) and the wound has been bleeding ever since. No way could I stick to plan (blue). Today I felt fat and had a look on my scales. Yes I have gained 400 grams. I am still under goal but I like being 3 kgs under. Well I will join the class in the morning for our virtual class but OMG I tried to do shopping today and all the shelves were empty! I have plenty of coffee but I measure 4 points of semi skimmed milk and put whatever I want into the frother from the measured milk. I am 70 and don't have a big appetite but it's the Magnum ice cream etc that cost the points. I am a vegetarian and have been for 40 years now. I lived in South Africa for 40 years and came back to the UK 8 years ago which is when I gained weight. I have a gold member for well over a year. I am fortunate to have had your videos pop up on RUclips and will keep watching. Keep plodding along.🙄
Wow WW has really changed since I did it. It used to be that a point equaled about 50 calories and the free foods were only 0 point veggies. Cheers for doing such a great job.
You've just inspired me to climb back on the wagon Bobbie. 👏 My favorite way to eat popcorn is to drizzle over a teaspoon of olive oil! One point on purple and so much better than fake butter. Its a healthy fat too! Thanks for getting me back on track. You're the best! 💜
I’m also not watching t.v, don’t want to panic, stress eat, or boredom eat, don’t want to go backwards with my weight, I’m on blue right now, do you give points for all plans or just purple, that 5 lb weight loss was awesome, great job!
Oh boy...how I know that! I'm glad you are trying now. I am doing Keto now, but I do think WW is still a great program. You may want to join my private Facebook group. It's free and it's for women over 40 who want to lose weight on any program. If you are interested, here's link - bit.ly/3m5R6kh
Congratulations on your perseverance in your weight loss journey! I commend you for using a point method, but thankfully, there are options out there. Three years ago I was informed I was pre-diabetic & the Lord led me to a lifestyle change (not a “diet” which I, personally, couldn’t have sustained forever). I quickly lost 50 lbs., ending at 140 lbs. (I’m 5’6). Found out an error had been made & I wasn’t even pre-diabetic after all! But, it’s what the Lord used to get my attention about my weight. So thankful for options out there & while counting points would have been tiring and unsustainable for me, I was able to find a healthy, lifestyle alternative in eating tons of clean and lean food, high in fiber and delicious!
One of the things I have started doing it posting my meals to Pinterest. Similarly to how you feel RUclips holds you accountable, if I’m not posting to my Pinterest, I’ve not been staying on track. It also doubles as a way for me to make a virtual recipe book!
Thank you for the video! I thought it was a great challenge for you. Congratulations on the great loss! I have been riding on the struggle bus myself. I am sure the closing of the studios is not going to help!
I would suggest switching to a different plan for a week and see if your portion sizes could be what's doing you in. I've found that eating slightly smaller meals has better results than swapping a 50 calories snack for a 40 calorie snack even if the points on the snack are very different
💙 Love your channel so glad I found you! I've been doing intermittent fasting with a 6ish hour eating window. Totally helps with late night snacking and energy levels. 💜
You look beautiful today, so happy for your weight loss,👍 your smile is so nice to see, I’m still thinking about Checking out WW. Again. Take care and thanks for sharing,🌹🌹👍😊😊
Great job with your eating and I wanted to tell you that your hair looks great!😊 I’m having trouble with exercise. I need to exercise for health reasons! I just don’t want to do it!
I don't think there are really veggies in the veggie straw.. Read the list of ingredients... I dont mean to burst your bubble.. Just look..you love them keep eating There are other chips you can have more of for same points ie good thins Im so happy for your wt loss you did great You are an inspiration
I think I say it almost every time I comment, but I will say it again. You are a genuine joy to watch! Even my girls ages, 21, 20, 17, 16, 15, and 12.5 enjoy listening to you! (Yes, there are six of them. I have a boy too. He is the oldest.) I joined WW on Feb 8 of this year and am really enjoying it. It's been a bit of a learning curve. I am on Purple 16 as well.

The pandemic has us out walking daily, so that is helpful too. That is so awesome that you lost 5lb!! in one week! I am going to have to see if I can find that butter spray. I LOVE popcorn, but with salt and butter and if I can get that with the spray, I say woo hoo! Maybe I can have more self-control and stay away from the salt and vinegar chips. It is so hard when you have a family at home that can eat virtually anything! Love that you were honest about your boo boos. :o) Cheering you on from Ontario, Canada!

Please continue your inspirational talks, please. There is such a genuineness about you! You appear to be honest, yet funny. There aren't many people like you, so please continue. I listen to you and laugh. Ty, Linda
That's so kind of you to say! Thank you Linda!
You are a JOY to watch.
I agree♡
I am enjoying your videos 😊 for anyone interested, you can put plain popcorn kernels in a paper lunch bag, fold the end twice, sealing it, and put it in the microwave... That's how I do mine 😉
How long do you pop the popcorn?
I am so happy for you. I am 69 and decided enough was enough. I am tired of being fat. I stopped fast food. I lost 3 lbs. My highest was 200. I began walking I have a fit bit. 5000 steps.

You go girl! That is awesome! I have heard good things about intermittent fasting. I may give it a try to shake things up a bit! I'm glad you aren't giving up!
You are so inspirational! I ordered the clear popcorn maker and it was only 7 bucks. I’m so happy!!!!
That is awesome! I love mine!
So glad I found you! You are so happy and enthusiastic! I am too shy to do a video yet, but I just joined WW tonight and have 100lbs to lose. Keep making the videos I love watching you. You are beautiful inside and out! 🙂

I am 57 and just started the WW Purple Online Plan. I bought a new scale that tells you the percentage of body fat and also your metabolic age and it told me my metabolic age was 62 years old!

You are amazing for setting goals and sticking to them. I am over 50 and have struggled with weight for about 30 years. Just joined ww green plan and love feeling better because energy is better lost 11 pounds last month and looking forward to continuing success.
About the popcorn, this is what I do. 1/4 cup popcorn kernels in a brown paper lunch bag and microwave for about 2 minutes and 15 seconds and salt to taste with the butter spray.
I have heard about doing that. Thanks for the info.
Me too!
How do you seal the bag? Is just folding it over enough?

Awesome job! I am in same boat. I lost 75 now I can't get my mindset on keeping going. Ty for inspiration ! Keep going, you look great!
No matter, YOU DID A GREAT JOB! You are such an inspiration in so many ways to so many people. I’m almost to the 50 mark and have learned so much from your videos ❤️
Yay YOU! That’s awesome. 👏👏👏
Sorry I should have clarified, I’m almost to the 50 mark age wise......I wish I’d lost 50lbs! Thank you though 😊
5 pounds ! Congratulations! I think that is awesome ! I also have the same problem at night with the munchies AND I also just bought one of those popcorn poppers too ! I really like it ! I am on WW blue plan and the most I have lost in a week is 2 pounds so I think you are doing amazing ! Lately I have been going up and down myself with weight loss and gain.

Sounds great!! Hopefully we can get ground turkey back in the stores soon, lol. This panic shopping is driving me crazy!
Oh my goodness. That’s half my diet! Yikes!
you all probably dont care at all but does someone know a method to get back into an instagram account??
I stupidly forgot the account password. I appreciate any help you can give me
@Soren Maximilian Instablaster =)
@Aden Dominic I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm trying it out now.
Seems to take a while so I will reply here later with my results.
@Aden Dominic It worked and I now got access to my account again. Im so happy!

Just cut on teaspoon or even a half and go from their but do it slowly over time. Good luck!
But the individual bags of veggie straws.
Love your channel! I think you did an amazing job while going through the beginning of the pandemic. I did weight watchers years ago and loved it. I would make the same mistakes as you made and found that couple days when I would have higher points, I would trick my body/metabolism and the weight would come off. Thanks for being so real ❤️
You did excellent! I joined WW in 2017, and lost 53# over the next 15 months, and got to my goal by Sept 2018. Then I met my new husband on eHarmony, and we started dating--going to countless restaurants. We married in 2019. By Spring 2020, I had gained 20+ pounds! Now I'm on my way down again. I am drinking 60 ounces of water a day. Isolation has helped me lose weight by not going to restaurants for greasy, salty foods. I am going to keep close track of my points for a week and expect to lose 2#. When I was lighter on my feet, I was much lighter-hearted and the world was a sunny place.
You are just absolutely amazing! I adore watching you.
I’m 33, but I am so enjoying your videos! I am on the WW blue plan and can relate so much to you. I just purchased a microwave popcorn maker and some zero point seasonings by Kernel Season’s. They have everything from salty to sweet so I’m hoping they cure whatever I crave to munch on after dinner, and just wanted to mention them to you in case you’d like to try a new no guilt flavor. Just look for the seasonings and not the drizzles :) Keep it up!
I like your tip for the turkey pepperoni.
Yay! Well done you, constant vigilance is obviously the key! 👍😃
Your enthusiasm is contagious! Such an inspiring video. I feel.so stuck at my weight and helpless but you've shown me it can be done if I'm willing to plan and sacrifice. Thank you!
Great job, I have got to get back on track also, this coronavirus has put me in a tail spin. You have inspired me to get back on track. Keep us updated.
You won’t want to come out of this time negating all your hard work. Don’t give up!
Congrats Bobbie.. what an awesome loss! I’m 57 and reached lifetime a few weeks ago.. Now I’m worried about maintenance and how to keep the weight off! The journey never ends.
I need to get back to WW . I was good for so many years and these last three have been bad. So much stress , I was stress eating and I need to stop. Keep up with the motivation. Thanks
I completely understand!
Amen on the coffee, lol I’m on purple too lost 5 so far almost one month. Thanks for the inspiration 💕
Congratulations! That is awesome Cheryle!
Hi Bobbie. I'm LF on the blue plan.....I've been stress eating this last week with all the stuff going on...... and need to get back on track.
I am soooo happy for you! Your honesty with the struggle to loose weight is inspirational. terrific!
Congratulations on your 5 lbs, Bobbie!! I am so happy for you! Hope you and your family are doing well! Prayers for you all during this Covid 19 time.
Thanks so much and especially for the prayers!!💕
Good job! Even failures are successes!
pear in 100% juice..drained is 0sp. ..you do not scan it....the one unsweetened has artificial sweetner...I have worked for WW and know that for sure...so any fruit in 100% Juice drained should not be scanned. .0sp. ..you did not make mistake unless you drink the juice
Just found your channel and I am loving your videos!
Congratulations Bobbie, great process!
Nice to meet you. My Toastmasters are Zooming and there's a lot more of it going around. Thanks for sharing what you've learned.
Yeah!!! Congratulations. Great willpower and determination. I’m over here eating like every meal is my last one. Stepped ion the scale ...😲. Not good! But today after watching this video I’m going to get a handle on my eating.
Now is a very hard time-I get it. I’m glad you are recommitting yourself.
I love coffee too! I bought a Nespresso for my birthday,which is life changing! I use real half n half, and stevia in my coffee. The pods are 1.00 to 1.20 per pod, it makes the most amazing coffee, because it makes a crema , a creamy texture, so u don’t need as much creamer to give u the creaminess.i have used 1 T. For my coffee along with the stevia, I bought the The Nespresso the pkg., which came with a frothier, I have tried low-fat milk, almond milk, and half -n-half, all turn out creamy and luscious.
SO PROUD of you Bobbie!!! 💙💜 I am inspired!
Congratulations on your 5 pound loss! I’m on WW also, but Blue plan. We must be soul sisters! I love, love coffee and popcorn! I’m going to try the Amazon popcorn popper! I laughed during your video regarding the brownies because just last night my daughter made brownies. It was so hard to not have a small piece.
Ugh, I can’t even have a small piece! If I do, that triggers something inside me that says “you MUST now have three pieces” 🤷♀️
You are such a fun person and so real that it almost makes me want to count points even though I'm not on WW!
That awesome Bobbie. I’m on blue and getting discouraged...have been thinking of switching to purple. Hmmm..I think it’s a go after watching this..good going❤️
I went to green and really enjoying it They all work but it's how it works for each individual. Try the purple for at least 2weeks to give it a good chance.
Have you tried the Kernel Seasoning popcorn shakers? They are 0 points and I have heard really good. I'm going to buy some. Lots of different flavors.
You are adorable! How did I miss you? I hope you are a teacher because I think you would be great at it! I'm on WW Blue - just started.
Not a teacher but I do work at a school. Thanks Ann!
I really enjoyed this video! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for sharing...it really does help me....evening snacks are the hardest for me...I’ll try the microwave popcorn...and....I totally share your love for coffee....totally....and I’ve decided i will continue to have my three cups a day....or I might just hurt somebody...LOL. Keep up the good work...you are an inspiration.
Yup, coffee is life!
Congratulations!
Yes I use a glass bowl, and lightly put a lid on it. Then I use a spray that is movie flavored spray on the popcorn aisle! Zero points!
Thank you for the tips!! I’m on a journey with dash diet. Here’s to us to keep on keeping on!!
What do you do on the dash diet
My Doctor knows I do WW but he told me to also do the dash diet , I have no idea
I think eating two days worth of points in 7 days sounds pretty rad too! You go!
I am 75 and lost 6.4 lbs in a month. I am on the blue plan. I taught nutrition certificated to teach. I wanted to try WW. I am 5’4” and now 140.6 and want to get down to 120. I am eating 23 points a day but I leave a point or 2 off. I don’t eat more than 1 free food a day.
Hi Bobbie. Tomorrow is the first virtual class for me. It's been an awful week because I have been running up and down the stairs pandering to my husband's every whim. He had a hip replacement done last Monday (9th) and the wound has been bleeding ever since. No way could I stick to plan (blue). Today I felt fat and had a look on my scales. Yes I have gained 400 grams. I am still under goal but I like being 3 kgs under. Well I will join the class in the morning for our virtual class but OMG I tried to do shopping today and all the shelves were empty! I have plenty of coffee but I measure 4 points of semi skimmed milk and put whatever I want into the frother from the measured milk. I am 70 and don't have a big appetite but it's the Magnum ice cream etc that cost the points. I am a vegetarian and have been for 40 years now. I lived in South Africa for 40 years and came back to the UK 8 years ago which is when I gained weight. I have a gold member for well over a year. I am fortunate to have had your videos pop up on RUclips and will keep watching. Keep plodding along.🙄
Stay strong Lynn - don’t give up!
Wow WW has really changed since I did it. It used to be that a point equaled about 50 calories and the free foods were only 0 point veggies. Cheers for doing such a great job.
You've just inspired me to climb back on the wagon Bobbie. 👏 My favorite way to eat popcorn is to drizzle over a teaspoon of olive oil! One point on purple and so much better than fake butter. Its a healthy fat too! Thanks for getting me back on track. You're the best! 💜
Ive never eaten popcorn with olive oil. Hmmm, I may try it.
Congrats on the 5 lb loss! Thanks for sharing this journey. You are always so cheerful! 🙂
Yay! 🙏🏻Happy for you. Thanks for sharing 💕
I’m also not watching t.v, don’t want to panic, stress eat, or boredom eat, don’t want to go backwards with my weight, I’m on blue right now, do you give points for all plans or just purple, that 5 lb weight loss was awesome, great job!
I do add all points sometimes when I talk about points! I’ll try to remember to include that more. Thanks for the reminder.
@@MindfulMidlife Thank-you, I’m a new subscriber, enjoying your videos
Good to know! I am in my late 40s and I am having an extremely hard time losing. It is much more difficult as we age. No joke!
Oh boy...how I know that! I'm glad you are trying now. I am doing Keto now, but I do think WW is still a great program. You may want to join my private Facebook group. It's free and it's for women over 40 who want to lose weight on any program. If you are interested, here's link - bit.ly/3m5R6kh
Thank you for showing us the pears.
Congratulations on your perseverance in your weight loss journey! I commend you for using a point method, but thankfully, there are options out there. Three years ago I was informed I was pre-diabetic & the Lord led me to a lifestyle change (not a “diet” which I, personally, couldn’t have sustained forever). I quickly lost 50 lbs., ending at 140 lbs. (I’m 5’6). Found out an error had been made & I wasn’t even pre-diabetic after all! But, it’s what the Lord used to get my attention about my weight. So thankful for options out there & while counting points would have been tiring and unsustainable for me, I was able to find a healthy, lifestyle alternative in eating tons of clean and lean food, high in fiber and delicious!
I’m so glad you found what works for you! Congratulations on your success!
♥️💕♥️💕♥️ Thanks for responding! New subbie and llove your channel.
One of the things I have started doing it posting my meals to Pinterest. Similarly to how you feel RUclips holds you accountable, if I’m not posting to my Pinterest, I’ve not been staying on track. It also doubles as a way for me to make a virtual recipe book!
That’s an awesome way to keep accountable and you help others with your recipes, love it!
Thank you for the video! I thought it was a great challenge for you. Congratulations on the great loss! I have been riding on the struggle bus myself. I am sure the closing of the studios is not going to help!
This was such a fun video!! So happy for you!!
I would suggest switching to a different plan for a week and see if your portion sizes could be what's doing you in. I've found that eating slightly smaller meals has better results than swapping a 50 calories snack for a 40 calorie snack even if the points on the snack are very different
Would love your recipe for Turkey Meatballs. Already tried your Lemon Garlic Chicken and it was a hit!
This will give you the recipe - docs.google.com/document/d/1XKSATZvE3P57sZm4jdMTo438hmlHLIME6716-lVw4oI
@@MindfulMidlife, Thank you! You did mention that you changed the recipe a bit. Anything I should know?
Awesome job!!!
Amen. Must have coffee! Thankfully I drink it black. 5 pounds! Success! Keep going!
You go girl!!! Congratulations!
You are always awesome. I love all your videos.
You made me 😂 I have been on the program and love the points. Instead of sweets I have my . But I stick to the points 😃😃😃
Hi! Could I ask you to share your turkey meatball recipe, please?
Stress eating is a real challenge for us this week for sure. Great video! 😊
Wow, great job. 5#s in a week is wonderful congrats.
Congratulations!!!! Maybe you could wean off of creamer to help. I am encouraged to try this...
I have tried that many times. I’ve actually gotten it down but sadly, I can’t go lower.
I thank you for your honesty.You are an inspiration:-)
Great video! Enjoyed it all!!
You are such a light! Did you start out purple?
Wow! Brava you. Fantastic!
Great job! You are an inspiration
💙 Love your channel so glad I found you! I've been doing intermittent fasting with a 6ish hour eating window. Totally helps with late night snacking and energy levels. 💜
You look beautiful today, so happy for your weight loss,👍 your smile is so nice to see, I’m still thinking about
Checking out WW. Again. Take care and thanks for sharing,🌹🌹👍😊😊
Great job with your eating and I wanted to tell you that your hair looks great!😊 I’m having trouble with exercise. I need to exercise for health reasons! I just don’t want to do it!
